The calanoid fauna (Crustacea, Copepoda) of the Cordillera Oriental of the Colombian Andes
Copyright policy )The calanoid fauna (Crustacea, Copepoda) of the Cordillera Oriental of the Colombian Andes
Calanoid copepods belonging to four species and one subspecies from lakes and ponds mainly from the Cordillera Oriental (22) and Cordillera Central (1) of the Colombian Andes are recorded. Most of the water bodies studied are located in the ‘paramo’ region, between 2996 and 4085 m altitude. The family Boeckellidae is recorded for the first time from Colombia. Taxonomic characteristics of Boeckella occidentalis Marsh, 1906, Boeckella gracilis (Daday,1902) and the diaptomid Prionodiaptomus colombiensis (Thiebaud, 1914) are discussed. A new diaptomid genus, Colombodiaptomus, with one species and one subspecies are established.
